    Opening for Blackfield in North America?

    tickets are now on sale, but they removed the mention of Katatonia. It's just Blackfield + guests.......so it may not happen after all. I'll wait 'til I buy any.

    Opening for Blackfield in North America?

    still nothing more than the ticket outlet mention of it. here's the direct link http://www.admission.com/html/evinfo.htmI?CNTX=1172197&l=EN&C= But looking at the confirmed dates from each site, Blackfield's north american tour is from may 18th to june 6th. And Katatonia have nothing booked...

    Opening for Blackfield in North America?

    Hello, there's no info on this on either Blackfield or Katationia's websites, but on the site where I can buy tickets for the Montreal gig on may 23rd, (Admission.com) it mentions Katatonia as the opening act. Anyone knows more about this?

    Montreal

    Well no, not the Bell Center. The Metropolis. Porcupine Tree also outgrew the Medley and have since switched to Metropolis. It's bigger, and there is a better crowd flow on the floor.

    Montreal

    Well, I'm not gonna say I didn't go 'cos I hated the crowd last may...but the Medley is too small for a band like Opeth. I'm the kind of guy that skips the opening acts and arrive just in time for the headliner. I usually can find a good spot on the floor, near the back and I'm fine with...

    Blackwater Park 5.1 Mix...??

    Damnation thru Dolby Pro-Logic II (music) sounds surprisingly good. Not as good as a real 5.1 mix, but cool nontheless....and better than GR!

    DAMNATION II IN THE FUTURE SOMETIME ?????????

    I'd enjoy a funky album a lot more, like that part in The Lotus Eater.

    Burden MUST be played live!

    I agree, but currently, In My Time of Need serves this purpose. A soft break is welcome, but just one! This ain't a Bon Jovi show after all!

    from the Admission website. They've been on sale for a couple of weeks. The show is at the Quai Jacques-Cartier in the old port. I've never been to that venue. Hope the weather will be nice!

    Fall US tour 2008

    Just my luck! I've alredy got my Sigur Ros tickets for Montreal on september 20th.....the same day that Opeth is in Quebec City..... Good thing I saw Opeth last may! And the same thing happens again. Mikael said thay'd be coming back soon, but they're not, just like on the GR tour. Looks like...

    Watershed: Are you disapointed with it?

    I like that they don't try to please the fans. I would hate a repeat of any of the earlier albums. By the first listen, my impression was that I'd need to hear it many times to fully appreciate it. And I'm still not there, but I love it nonetheless. I just heard the 5.1 mix, and I discovered...

    Leaking albums on purpose?

    The best way to avoid leaks is to do what Tool did for 10,000 Days. No advance copies were sent at all. They didn't care what journalists had to say to influence the first week sales. And guess what? The album sold just fine. When an album is highly anticipated, fans will buy it as soon as it...

    Opeth in 5.1

    I got my copy of Still Life today. I was a bit skeptical after hearing the rather bland Ghost Reveries mix. But this one is excellent. The packaging also surprised me as I thought it'd be a standard double-cd case, since the price tag was low. I haven't checked the new 2.0 mix yet, but that...
